ABBYY Recognition Server 3.0 System Administrator’s Guide
Managing Licenses
License management is carried out in the Licensing node of the Remote Administration Console.
In this node, you can add, remove, activate, swap, and select licenses.
An unlimited number of licenses can be added in this node. Licenses from a hardware key are added to the node
automatically when you plug the dongle in a USB port. Licenses with software key protection should be added by
clicking
(Add New License) on the toolbar or by selecting the corresponding item on the shortcut menu.
A license can have one of the following states:
Current (only an activated and unexpired license can have “Current” state)
Activated
Not activated
Expired
To activate a nonactivated license select it and either click
(Activate License) on the toolbar or select the
corresponding item on the shortcut menu. See the License Activation section for more information.
At any given moment, only one of the licenses (the “Current” license) is used. If the Current license expires, ABBYY
Recognition Server will automatically switch to the next available license. If none is available, ABBYY Recognition Server
will stop. Use the “up” and “down” arrows to arrange the licenses in order of availability, and use
(Set As Current
License) to switch to the selected license.
Managing User Accounts
In the Users node of the Remote Administration Console, you can view the list of Recognition Server users, add or
remove user accounts, and change user roles and permissions.
There are three types of user roles in ABBYY Recognition Server 3.0: Administrator, Verifier, and Indexer. A user can have
administrator, verifier, and/or indexer permissions. Administrator has all the setup rights and can add and remove users.
Verifier has the permissions to proofread the recognized pages from certain workflows on a Verification Station. Indexer
has the permissions to assign attributes to documents from specified workflows on an Indexing Station.
Immediately after the installation of ABBYY Recognition Server 3.0, there is only a Chief Administrator in the system. The
password of the Chief Administrator is empty. We strongly recommend changing this password. To change the
password: in the Details pane of the Administrators node, select the Chief Administrator item and then select
Change Password… on the shortcut menu.
To add a new user:
1. Click
(Add User) on the toolbar or select the corresponding item on the shortcut menu.
2. In the User Properties dialog box, enter a domain user account in DOMAIN\username format, or a local user
account in COMPUTER\username format.
3. Assign one or several roles to the user. If you assign a Verifier (Indexer) role to the user, you can select which
workflows this user should have the right to verify (to index documents from), and whether the user should be
